Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a portable table in which a luggage carrier (container) can be used as legs, and a table board is formed by two top plates that can be freely connected to the legs.

Conventional portable tables used for outdoor dining, etc. have a structure in which the legs and table board are integrated and cannot be separated, and the table board cannot be separated, resulting in an overall heavy weight and volume. However, there was a problem that it was bulky and unsuitable for carrying.

The purpose of this invention is to solve the above problems,
To provide a portable table in which a baggage carrier (container) and a top plate which can be divided into two can be removably combined.

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing the assembled state of the invention, and Fig. 2 is a front view of the same.
a, 1b are the side panels of the container, 1c is the front panel, 1d
is the rear plate, and 2 and 2' are the top plates.

The container of the present invention is made of synthetic resin, wood, light metal, etc., and is configured to be foldable. Any method may be used to fold the container as long as the entire container can be folded compactly.

Figure 3 is a bottom view of one of the top plates. This top plate is also made of almost the same material as the container, and when assembling the top plate as a table board, the two top plates are butted together in a flat shape. If necessary, a hinge portion may be provided at the abutting portion. Connecting members 3 are provided at predetermined positions (three locations in the figure) on the bottom surfaces of the top plates 2, 2', and the connecting members 3 are formed so as to be able to fit into the upper frame 4 of the container 1. In addition, code 5 is a reinforcing rib provided on the top plate as necessary.
The number of ribs may be increased or decreased other than shown in Figure 3, or
The mounting position can also be changed. A notch 6 is pre-drilled at the rib portion that comes into contact with the upper frame 4 when assembling the top plate. Therefore, the ribs do not become an obstacle when assembling the container and the top plate. Further, reference numeral 7 is a tapered projection protruding near the corner of the bottom surface of the top plate, and a hole 8 is formed inside this tapered projection 7, and the top plate 2,
When storing the 2', it is possible to separate the two top plates and then stack the two top plates in close contact using the tapered protrusion 7 and the hole 8.

Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the - line in Figure 3, Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along the same line, Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along the - line in Figure 2, and Figure 7 is a perspective view of the foldable container in the middle of folding. In the figure, when folding, the side plate 1a,
Centering on the upper edge of 1b, both side plates 1a and 1b are stored by flipping up into the upper frame 4, and the hinge portions 9 of the front plate 1c and rear plate 1d are folded to make it compact. is a container connection fixture provided as necessary. This connection holder 10 may be of any shape or structure, and if the tapered protrusion 7 is configured to fit directly into the inner edge of the upper frame 4 of the container 1, It is also possible to omit this connecting bracket 10 itself.

FIG. 8 is a side view of the folded container 1 in which the two divided top plates 2 and 2' are stacked closely on top of each other and stored. The top plates 2, 2' may be stored inside the container as they are, or they may be stacked on top of each other on the upper frame of the container as shown in FIG.

The present invention has the above structure, and when assembled and used as a table, two top plates are butted flat against the upper frame of the container to form a table plate having a larger planar area than the container. do. Since this top plate is connected and fixed to the upper frame 4 by the connecting member 3, there is no risk that the container and the top plate will come off during normal use. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 1, holes 8 of tapered protrusions 7 appear near the planar corners of the top plate, but if aesthetics are considered, these holes 8 may be plugged with rubber plugs or the like. is also possible.

Next, when storing the table, use the top plate 2,
2' upwardly in FIG. 1 to release the connection between the upper frame of the container and the top plate. In this state, the container is folded as shown in FIG. 7, and then the container is folded as shown in FIG. 8. Two divided baking sheets are stacked closely on top of each other for storage.

In this way, the top plate of the present invention becomes a flat table plate when in use, and is divided into two top plates when stored, but the two top plates may be connected to each other with a hinge or the like. . If the top plate is formed from a single piece, it will be difficult to fold and store the top plate, and if the top plate is divided into three or more pieces, assembly will be time-consuming and the strength of the completed table plate will be impaired.

Furthermore, a top plate like the top plate of the present invention, whose left and right sides can be formed using the same mold, has the advantage of being economical because only one mold is required for its manufacture.

The table board of the present invention can also be used by placing the two top boards abutting each other at the hinge part 11 on the ground as shown in Figure 9. In this case, the tapered protrusions function as the legs of the portable table. I will do it. Further, as shown in FIG. 10, it is also possible to use a rod leg 12 attached to the tapered protrusion, and in this case, the upper end of the rod leg may be structured so that it can be freely inserted into the tapered protrusion.

11 to 18 are drawings of other embodiments, and FIG. 11 is a perspective view showing an assembled state;
Fig. 12 is a front view of the same, and reference numeral 13 indicates the top plate 2, 2'.
This rising edge 13 is formed on the upper edge of the top plate, and has the effect of preventing objects placed on the top plate from sliding off. FIG. 13 is a bottom view of one side of the top plate, and reference numeral 14 is a hook member protruding from the bottom surface of the top plate, and the lower end engaging portion 14' of this hook member 14 is attached to the upper frame 4 of the container during assembly. Since it is configured to be able to freely engage with the edge, when the top plate is connected and fixed to the container, it is possible to stably maintain the positions of both.

Next, by forming a predetermined position on the side surface of the tapered projection 7 on the notched flat plate surface 15, the contact between the tapered projection 7 and the upper frame 4 of the container becomes a surface contact when the top plate and the container are stored as shown in FIG. Therefore, a stable stacked state can be obtained.

Fig. 14 is a sectional view taken along the - line in Fig. 13, Fig. 15 is a sectional view taken along the same line, and Fig. 16 is a sectional view taken along the - line in Fig. 13.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken along the - line, Fig. 17 is a perspective view of the container in the middle of folding, and Fig. 18 is a side view of the folded container with two top plates stacked closely on top of each other. There is.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 17, the side plates 1a, 1b, the front plate 1c, and the rear plate 1d are bent in the same order as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, but the connecting bracket 10 is omitted. It shows.

Therefore, the present invention is compact because the two top plates can be stacked and stored in a folded container when not in use, making it convenient to carry and move, requiring only a small storage space, and being easy to assemble as a table. The legs and table board can be assembled with one touch, and the completed table has outstanding stability.The container can also be used as a cargo carrier, which is its original purpose, and the production cost of the table is reduced because the container is used as the legs. It has excellent effects such as being cheaper.
